Note: Settings are fairly magical pages, and Kontent's core is sensitive to their internal structure. Settings should only be placed under the /kontent/settings page in your Kontent store, and should never have child pages. However, it is safe to create settings with names Kontent doesn't use.

Each setting has a value and a description; the description serves as documentation of the setting's meaning. Both values and descriptions can be edited through the page's 'edit' mode, although the description is usually left alone.

Internally, settings are retrieved through the WWW::Kontent::setting function. Settings are usually interpreted as simple text strings, but are sometimes treated as YAML documents or interpolated like Perl 6 string literals; this should be noted in the description.
